A beta version is out now. It's buggy and everything, but it's playable, and can be beaten.
If you find any bugs (or typos), please post a comment so I'll add those bugs to "known bugs" section in the description and fix them later.

Here's some #art. You don't have to thank me.
Night is coming.
Note that "night" is just used to reveal some objects that are required to collect to enter the final area, it's not a distinct game area.
More about it later.
Some progress. I'll start a devlog once I decide the name for this game (the working title is "A Tower for Memories").
Who would have guessed, making a puzzle game with metroidvania-like progression for MS-DOS with CGA graphics didn't really work, but if you want to try it, see here: https://github.com/jani-nykanen/the-curse-of-cga (see "Releases"; requires DOSBox)
I still had fun, though.
Some funky hand-drawn animation. And I really mean hand-drawn animation: I drew the frames on a paper with a pencil and then scanned the result and created the gif.
Stuff
Devlog is coming once I draw the logo and create the game page.
New features: shop, doors, more items and a working save system.
I just tell you that programming menus is pain. The game code has so much spaghetti I could start a restaurant.
But(t) it works, and that's the main thing!
I started working on the actual game map (the map you have seen in the gifs and videos was a test map), and here's the progress this far. About 50% done.
Stuff
I have had bad luck with my projects this year, so I decided to make a sequel for A Graveyard for Dreams. Maybe I will finish this project one day, maybe not, but at least I have fun making it!
